Break Technologies has five strategic business units (SBUs)—computers, refrigerators, washing machines, air conditioners, and televisions. Its computers unit is quite profitable in spite of operating in a slow-growing market, and it is profitable enough to provide funds for the operation of the other business units as well. In the context of the BCG matrix, which of the following categories of SBUs best describes the computers unit?

1. What is ATP and how does it provide energy to the cell  2. Starting with the onset of exercise (exercise at a consistent intensity that doesn’t change; example-7 mph on treadmill), what are the energy systems that are used to fuel the exercise, what is the order of predominant use? Why are these systems turned up and down as the exercise progresses? 3. I have been running at 7 mph on a treadmill for 25 minutes.  What happens in terms of energy expenditure/ATP demand/ATP production if I all of a sudden increase exercise intensity?  Why do these changes occur? What happens in terms of energy expenditure/ATP demand/ATP production if I then decrease the exercise intensity? Why do these changes occur? Be specific in your response as to what is happening. 4. Using your knowledge of bioenergetics, explain why a person is unable to exercise at maximal exercise intensity (i.e. a sprint) for 2.5 hrs? Be specific.  5. What are the adaptations to aerobic exercise training that allow me to exercise at the same absolute exercise intensity for a longer period of time? Why do these adaptations allow a person to exercise for a longer period of time?  Be specific.
